My wife and I just spent a beautiful afternoon on Parrot Mountain. We had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience. The grounds were immaculate and very beautiful. We at times felt like we were in the middle of a jungle, but the stars were the beautiful birds that seemed to enjoy interacting with us as much as we did them. Some talked and others danced to show us how much they loved our company. It’s not a strenuous walk but is inclined some. A special shout out to Terri, she was so friendly and informative answering all of our questions. She even gave us a golf cart ride back to our car! We’ve been coming to PF for over 20 years and somehow didn’t even know about Parrot Mountain. Highly recommended!!

Parrot Mountain was easily the best activity that we did on our trip to the Gatlinburg area! There are live birds everywhere and many of them talk. They have a large area of birds on a perch just waiting for their turn at sitting on your arm or shoulder. I had a bird visiting on me for probably 10 minutes or so. You can also buy food for them but they didn’t seem hungry when I was there. The bird nursery was really fun too. There the birds are learning how to interact with humans. The whole walk through the park was beautiful too! Go!

Visited with my cousin for her birthday and had a wonderful time. From the ticket booth lady and Megan in gift shop, we also ate at the cafe, very tasty. Charlene was AWESOME, with her 23 years of employment, you could tell she LOVES her job. She told us of some of the parrots that were rescued. One named Glitch sadly was dropped on his head by previos owners and had brain damage. The park is great, they also had toucans, and other birds. One black bird, name Zelda, had sots on her head, but turns out they were in the shape of hearts. I had never seen one of those birds before. You can also feed the birds in a couple of sections in the park and get a photo with the birds, which we did.
